OPPOSITION Leader Michael Gunner is now at unbackable odds to be the next Territory Chief Minister according to the latest market issued by Sportsbet.

Sportsbet slashed its odds from $1.15 into $1.07 with 95 per cent of the money backing a change of government on August 27.

Its punters are convinced Labor will win the upcoming NT Election.

Adam Giles’ CLP have drifted out from $5 to $7, with just 13 punters backing the incumbent to be returned.

“With just over four weeks until Territorians head back to the polls, Sportsbet punters are convinced Michael Gunner will be the Northern Territory’s next Chief Minister,” Sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Bulmer said.

“Ninety five per cent of the money Sportsbet currently holds on the NT Election is backing a Labor win, with the party now at a very short $1.07 to form the next government.”
